Diurnal Fluctuations of Arterial Ketone Body Ratio in Normal Subjects and Patients With Liver Dysfunction

SHINGO IWATA, KAZUE OZAWA, YASUYUKI SHIMAHARA. KEIICHIRO MORI, NOBUAKJ KOBAYASHI. KAORU KUMADA, and YOSHIO YAMAOKA Second Department of Surgery. Faculty o f Medicine. Kyoto University. Kvoto. Japan

To explore the metabolic aspects of chronic liver disease, diurnal changes of arterial ketone body ratio (acetoacetate/3-hydroxybutyrate), reflecting he· patic mitochondrial redox potential, were investi· gated in normal subjects, patients with chronic liver disease (Child's class A or 8), and patients with hepatic failure (Child's class C). Ketone body ratio in normal subjects increased after breakfast from 0.96 to 2.00, after lunch from 2.17 to 2.38, and after dinner from 1.23 to 2.55 with blood glucose level ranging from 103 to 141 mg/dL (5.7 to 7.8 mmoVL). By contrast, the ketone body ratio in the Child A orB group changed little and remained within a range of 0. 7o-1.35 despite a large change in blood glucose level from 102 to 176 mg/dL (5 . 7 to 9.8 mmoVL). Ketone body ratio in Child's class C remained near or below 0.4 with no response to glucose administra· tion, despite a marked elevation in blood glucose level. These results indicate that hepatic mitochon· drial redox potential undergoes diurnal changes in sharp response to meals in normal liver function but that these fluctuations are absent in patients with liver damage (Child's class A, 8 , and C). Further· more, it remains at low levels in severe liver fai lure (Child's class C). It is also suggested that hepatic mitochondrial redox potential plays an important role in the regulation of blood glucose levels.

Since we proposed the redox theory in the early 1980s (1,2), our research has been focused on the

essential role of arterial ketone body ratio (AKBR; aceloacetale/3-hydroxybutyrate) in energy metabo· !ism as lhe metabolic basis of multiple systemic organ failure (3,4). ExperimentaJ findings indicate that AKBR is an accurate parameter to estimate the hepatic function in primary liver disease as well as in hepatec­tomy, hypoxia. hemodilution. and hemorrhagic shock

(5-9). The redox theory is now receiving wider accep­tance. and AKBR has begun to be applied clinically to evaluate the changes in hepatic function (10-13). More recently, AKBR has been reported to have potential use as an early indicator of graft failure after human liver transplantation (1 4,15) .

The AKBR decreases in patients with liver disease, and it remains below 0.4 in patients with severe hepatic failure, at which level it hardly responds to any form of intensive treatment. Eighty-five percent of the patients with AKBR below 0.4 die of liver fa ilure complicated by multiple organ insufficiency (1,2.1 l ). On the other hand. the AKBR in the normal liver rapidly responds to factors such as hepatic blood flow. glucose load, and insulin and attains high levels over 0.7 (16.17).

This study aims to clarify the extent of fluctuation in AKBR in the cycle of daily life. The diurnal changes in AKBR were measured in normal subjects. patients with chronic liver disease, and patients with severe hepatic failure. Our findings show that a different pattern in diurnal changes of AKBR exists between normal and impaired livers and that diurnal changes in AKBR have a tendency to flatten and remain at low levels in accordance with the severity of liver dysfunc­tion.

ABSTRACT

To clarify the damage s ite of compl icated oxidative phosphorylation

function after hemorrhagic shock in jaundiced liver mitochondria,

the H+-ATPase activity of inside--out submitochondrial particles,

mitochondrial membrane potential, and oxygen consumption in the

presence of uncoupler were studied as indices of phosphorylation,

membrane intactness, and oxidation, respectively . Hemorrhagic shock

was induced according to the Wig~Jers' model (mean arterial blood

pressure=40 mmHg) in rats made jo1undiced by common bile duct

ligation; sham-operated rats served as controls. After reinfusion

of the shed blood, all of the control rats survived but all of the

jaundiced rats died. Liver mitochondria from jaundiced rats after 1

hr hypotension demonstrated a 48% decrease in mitochondrial ATPase

activity without remarkable chang,es in either oxidative activity or

membrane potential of liver mitochondria. The reduction of ATPase

activity appeared to be due to its release 1n the supernatants

obtained from submitochondrial particles since the ATP activity of

supernatants in jaundiced rats was significantly (p<0.001) higher

than that of the controls. It is suggested that this enzyme plays a

key role in energy restoration in recovery from shock.

INTRODUCTION

Many clinical studies have demonstrated that opertation on severe

obstructive jaundice is associated with a postope1rative morbidity

of 40-60% and a mortality of 15-25 %.1-6 Postoperative

complications and causes of death include renal and hepatic

failure, infection and hemorrhage. Bile duct ligation induces many

biological alterations including hemodynamic and n1etabolic

abnormalities.?-10 Once metabolic functions of the liver are

impaired with biliary obstruction, the impairment takes six weeks

or more to improve after release of obstruction.10 Experimental

animals with obstructive jaundice have an increased susceptibility

to hemorrhagic hypotension7,8 and have an increased tendency to

develop shock following hemorrhage.u Although som•e studies deal

with the hemodynamic abnormalities in these animals, the metabolic

aspects of obstructive jaundiced liver during hemorrhagic shock

have not been well documented. Previous reports12,13 from our

laboratory showed that hemorrhagic shock for two hours in

obstructive jaundiced animals proved lethal and that severe

impairment of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylati[on was

observed. The authors thought that poor recovery of energy state

after reinfusion of the reserved blood due to the impairment of

oxidative phosphorylation may be reloted to so-called irreversible

shock. It has been reported that the decline in ATP levels or

energy state is a critical event in the development of cell

damage.14,1S Although it may be controversial whether abnormalities

in ATP levels and ATP production have relevance for the high

mortality rate, low ATP levels at least lead to inactivation of

energy-requiring systems. Maintenance of ATP levels or ATP

production systems is thought be important for critical cellular

functions .16,17

Oxidative phosphorylation should be functionally and

structurally separable into oxidative proton translocating and

phosphorylating proton translocating complexes, namely electron

transport proteins and H+-ATPase, respectively.18 These two systems

are coupled to produce ATP by means of an electrochemical proton

gradient.19 In this study, in order to clarify the damage site of

complicated oxidative phosphorylation system using obstructive

jaundiced rats subjected to hemorrhagic shock, the H+-ATPase

activity of inside-out submitochondrial particles and oxygen

consumption of mitochondria in the presence of an uncoupler were

studied as indices of phosphorylation and oxidation, respectively.

It is also important to determine whether the mito•chondrial

membrane is intact since membrane permeability greatly affects

oxidative phosphorylation. Therefore the mitochondl~ial membrane

potential was measured as an indicator of membrane intactness.

Evidence will be presented indicating that the disability of

phosphorylation occurred in jaundiced liver mitochondria at 1 hr

after hemorrhagic shock. H+-ATPase is comprised of the membrane

sector (F0 ) and the catalytic part CF1). The F1 consists of the

five subunits (a, p, y, b , and E in order of decreasing molecular

weight). It is known that only the a and p subunits bind ATP and

that p subunit is a catalytic center of ATPase. Molecular changes

in H+-ATPase were also studied by oligomycin sensitivity of ATPase

and SDS-PAGE analysis of submitochondrial particles.

METHODS

Male albino rats of Wistar strain were maintained on Cleo 2

(Nippon Haigoshiryo Co Ltd., Osaka, Japan) and water ad libitum

for two weeks before the operation. Those weighing (Jbout 150 grams

constant mean arterial blood pressure. 20 After 1 or 2 hr

hypotension, all reserved blood was returned to the rats . At 24

hr after the induction of shock, the survival rate was 0% (0/10)

1n jaundiced rats, but 100% (10/10) in control rats. All

procedures were performed under conditions as sterile as possible.

All experiments involving animals were carried out 1n accordance

with the institution's guidelines for the care and use of

laboratory animals.

Liver mitochondria were prepared after 1 or 2 hr hypotension by

the method described previously.Zl

Oxidative phosphorylation function was monitored

polarographically by the conventional method previously reported.ZZ

Oxidative activity was evaluated polarographicallly by measuring

oxygen consumption rate in the presence of FCCP as an uncoupler.

Assay for oxidative activity was done at 22°( (pH ?.4) in a medium

containing 0.3 M mannitol, 10 mM potassium chloride, 2 mM magnesium

chloride, 10 mM tris(hydroxymethyl)aminornethane-hyalrochloride

buffer, 3 mM potassium phosphate buffer, and 0.2 m~l

ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. Glutamate as a substrate was added

at a concentration of 3 mM and FCCP was added at concentration of 1

~M. The oxygen consumption rate i.n the presence of FCCP was

calculated from the polarographic tracings.

Mitochondrial membrane potentic1l was measured by using FCCP

according to the method of Akermcm23 which was modified as follows.

The reaction medium contained 0.2 M mannitol 0.38 mM

ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, 20 mM

N-2-hydroxyethyl -piperazine-N'-2-ethane sulfonic acid (pH 7.4 with a

tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane buffer) and 20 mM potassium chloride

in 3 ml final volume. Safranine 0 was used in a final concentration

of 9.6 ~M. The reactions were sttarted by addition of freshly

isolated mitochondria to reaction medium containing safranine 0,

wi.th (state 4) or without (state l) addition of glutamate as

substrate. When absorbance change reached equilibrium, 0.48 ~M FCCP

was added, which resulted in a rapid absorbance change. Reactions

were performed in cuvettes of 1cm light path at 22°(. Changes 1n

absorption spectra were recorded vrith a two-wave length double beam

spectrophotometer (UV 3000, Shimadzu Co Ltd., Kyoto, Japan) set at

511 to 533 nm. All measurements were done in triplicate. The

membrane potential was calibrated by the potassium diffusion

potential. Valinomycin induced potassium diffusion potential was

the membrane potential in millivolts, and [K+] i. and [K+] 0 represent

the internal (matrix) and external (medium) concentrations of

potassium ion, respectively, with [K+]i. assumed to be 120 mM .23

Preparation of ESMP and determination of ATPase activity were

performed as followed . Purified submitochondrial particles were

prepared by a procedure modified from that of Lee et al . . 24 Freshly

isolated mitochondria were stored for 7 days at -30°( and thawed

immediately before use. They were suspended at a concentration of

20 mg protein/ ml in 0.3 M mannitol, containing 2 mM

ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid (final pH 8.5), and were then

exposed to ultrasonic energy for 60 s at 4°( (Heat Systems

Ultrasonics , Model W-225, output 70 W). Large mitochondrial

fragments were removed by centrifugation at 10000g for 10 min.

Submitochondrial particles were sedimented from the resulting

supernatant at 100000 g for 40 min at 4°( . The sediment was

resuspended to a final concentration of 30 mg/ ml with 0. 3 M

mannitol . ATPase activity was determined spectrophotometrically at

340 nm in a thermostatically controlled reaction cuvette at 30°( by

nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide v1a the pyruvate kinase and

lactate dehydrogenase reactions by a modified method of Buckle et

potassium chloride, 5 mM magnesium chloride, 20 mM

tris(hydroxymethyl)-aminomethane hydrochloride pH 7.4, 0.5 ~g/ml

rotenone, 0.1 mM reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide,

1 mM phosphoenolpyruvate, 5 units/ml lactate dehydrogenase, 2

units/ml pyruvate kinase and 20-30 ~g/ml submitochondrial particles

in a final volume of 3 ml. The reaction was started by the addition

of ATP at the concentrations of 0.025 to 1.6 mM. The data were

analyzed based on the Michaelis-Menten equation to give Vmax and Km.

The oligomycin sensitivity of the ATPase activity was measured over

the range from 1.0 to 20 nmol of oligomycin.

SDS-PAGE was carried out on 12.5% polyacrylamide gels in the SDS

and 3.2 mM urea.26 Western blotting and subsequent immunodecoration

were performed as described prev·iously utilizing an anti-bovine

RESULTS

Table 1 shows the respiratory control ratio, ADP/0 ratio, state

3 respiratory rate, and phosphor~tlation rate after induction of

hemorrhagic shock in control and jaundiced rats. The respiratory

control ratio with glutamate or succinate as substrate

significantly decreased after 1 and 2 hr hypotension 1n jaundiced

1 2

Page 16: 肝機能障害の評価法とその障害機序に関する研究; ヒト肝 Title ... · 2018-08-03 · 1 1 [ :r:r-@)2-' ,A, " GASTROENTEROLOGY 1991:100:1371-1378 Diurnal Fluctuations

rats. Coupling of oxidation and phosphorylation is judged by

ADP/0 ratio and ADP/0 ratio did not decrease after 1 or 2 hr

hypotension in controls. By contrast, in jaundi ced rats, it did

not decrease after 1 hr hypotension but decreased significantly

after 2 hr hypotension. The state 3 respirator)' rate (n mole of

atom oxygen per m1n per mg of mitochondrial protein) and the

phosphorylation rate (n mole of ATP synthesized per min per mg of

mitochondrial protein) wi.th glutamate or succinate as substrate

decreased significantly after 1 and 2 hr hypotension in jaundiced

liver mitochondria. From the above results, the oxidative

phosphorylation activity decreased significantly after hemorrhagic

shock in jaundiced rats.

Table 2 shows the changes 1n respiration robe of liver

mitochondria in the presence of FCCP after induction of

hemorrhagic shock in control and jaundiced rats .. The

FCCP-stimulated respiration rate with glutamate as substrate tends

to decrease at 2 hr after induction of shock in jaundiced rats but

has no significant decrease. The uncoupler stimulated respiration

rate wi.th succinate has no variations even after i.nducti.on of

shock i.n control and jaundiced animals. These observations i.mply

1 3

that no remarkable damage occurs to the electron transport system.

Table 3 shows the mitochondrial membrane potential after

induction of hemorrhagic shock in control and jaundiced rats.

Membrane potential in state 1 and state 4 had no decrease during

hemorrhagic shock in jaundiced and control rats. This result

indicates that the mitochondrial membrane was intact during the

observation period.

Table 4 shows H+-ATPase activity after induction of hemorrhagic

shock in control and jaundiced rats. There was no significant

difference in the mean values of Vrrtax and Km from ESMP between

control and jaundiced rats before shock and their values were

consistent with those of a previous. report.zs By contrast,

H+-ATPase activity was drastically lowered by 48% in ESMP from

jaundiced rats after 1 hr hypotension, and by 72% after 2 hr

hypotension. These results indicate that phosphorylative activity

decreases after shock in jaundiced tanimals. Km increased 1n

jaundiced rats after shock.

SDS-PAGE was performed to exam1ne the molecular changes in five

subunits of F1. As shown in Figure l, SDS-PAGE followed by Western

blotting with anti-bovine heart mitochondrial F1 antibody indicated

14

Page 18: 肝機能障害の評価法とその障害機序に関する研究; ヒト肝 Title ... · 2018-08-03 · 1 1 [ :r:r-@)2-' ,A, " GASTROENTEROLOGY 1991:100:1371-1378 Diurnal Fluctuations

that there was no change in the a/~ ratio 1n pur1e F1, control and

jaundiced ESMP after 1 hr hypotension. Densitometrical data of a/~

ratio were 1.01, 0.98, and 1.00, in purified F1, control, and

jaundiced ESMP, respectively. This indicates that: we can not

account for the reduction of ATPase activity observed in jaundiced

mitochondria after shock by dissociation of a or ~ subunit from

F1. Because y, o and E subunits are small proteins which are not as

easily detected as a and ~ subunits, we have no information

concerning changes of these subunits.

We examined oligomycin sensitivity and H+-ATPc1se activity of

supernatants obtained from ESMP. F0 of H+-ATPase is a

water-insoluble component that spans the energy tr·ansducing

membrane and directs protons toward or from F1 , a water-soluble

catalytic component. It is known that H+-ATPase activity is

inhibited by oligomycin and also that oligomycin sensitivity 1s

diagnostic of a correct assembly of F1 to F0 .18 As shown in Table

5, oligomycin sensitivity was significantly lowered in ESMP from

jaundiced rats after shock. ATPase activity of supc~rnatants 1n

jaundiced rats after shock was significantly higher than that of

1 5

Page 19: 肝機能障害の評価法とその障害機序に関する研究; ヒト肝 Title ... · 2018-08-03 · 1 1 [ :r:r-@)2-' ,A, " GASTROENTEROLOGY 1991:100:1371-1378 Diurnal Fluctuations

the controls. This suggests that a significant portion of the F1

was solubilized from jaundiced ~nitochondria after shock. On the

other hand, only a small portion of F1 was released from control

mitochondria.

DISCUSSION

The present study demonstrates that oxidative phosphorylation

1s more significantly impaired in jaundiced rats subjected to

hemorrhagic shock than in controls and that this is to be due to a

defect in the terminal phosphorylation phase of oxidative

phosphorylation rather than a defect in the electron transport

chain. As an important control, vve show no change in liver

mitochondrial membrane potential suggesting that the mitochondrial

membrane remained intact during the period of hemorrhagic shock.

H+-ATPase is more vulnerable to the combined stresses of

obstructive jaundice and hemorrhagic shock, than respiratory chain

and mitochondrial membrane. A recent paper has indicated that the

membrane potential is maintained for a comparative long period

during mitochondrial injury and breaks down rather promptly beyond

1 15

a critical point.29 An other pe~per reported that ATPase activity

decreased most rapidly compared with the activities of

mitochondrial inner membrane enzyme complexes of electron

transport in rat ischemic heart.~ Experimental results obtained

from our model are compatible wi.th these papers.

The reduction of ATPase activity appears to be due to

considerable release of F1 into the supernatant. The difference tn

oligomycin sensitivity between control and jaundiced mitochondria

after shock indicates that there may be altered assembly of F1 to

F0 which interacts with oligomycin.18 Our observation demonstrates

that the water-soluble catalytic subunits, Ft, are not as tightly

bound to the inner membrane as in control mitochondria. This loss

in affinity suggests the possibility that the function of proteins

thought to make structural links between Ft and F0 has been

compromised in jaundiced mitochondria after hemorrhagic shock. The

properties of the Ft portion may be changed by perturbation of

the membrane sector subunits, causing the impairment of

phosphorylation, as supported by other investigators.31,32

It has been reported that an intrinsic inhibitor protein which

binds to the H+-ATPase exists in mitochondria.33,~ If the

1 7

Page 21: 肝機能障害の評価法とその障害機序に関する研究; ヒト肝 Title ... · 2018-08-03 · 1 1 [ :r:r-@)2-' ,A, " GASTROENTEROLOGY 1991:100:1371-1378 Diurnal Fluctuations

inhibitor protein increases after hemorrhagic shock, especially in

jaundiced liver, H+-ATPase activity may decrease. However, it is

unlikely that the inhibitor protein can increase sufficiently to

cause an effect after 1 or Z hr of shock, especially only in

jaundiced liver. Furthermore, if the inhibitor protein dissociates

from ATPase, ATPase activity increases. But this study indicates a

decrease of ATPase activity in jaundiced rats after shock.

Therefore, there is little possibility in this case that the

inhibitor protein is important in H+-ATPase activity.

Common bile duct ligation induces alterations in many

biological phenomena, especially the elevation of bilirubin and

bile acid levels which have cytotoxic effects. Since it is known

that bile acids have an especially high hepatotoxic potential as

detergents,35,3G these bile acids may be effective in dissociation

F1 from F0 . When ATP production decreases due to disability of

phosphorylation, intracellular calcium increases because the Ca

pump 1s energy-dependent. Calciurr1 enhances the detergent activity

of bile salts3s and the decrease of ATPase activity may be

accelerated more.

membrane- requiring mitochondrial reactions .37 More recent study

suggests that the binding site of an organic anion such as

bilirubin is present on ~ subunit of F1.38 Bilirubin is known to

uncouple oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria .39 This study

shows no changes before shock and after 1 hr hypotension in ADP/ 0

ratio which is an index in judging coupling of oxidation and

phosphorylation . Therefore, there 1may be little effect of

bilirubin as a uncoupler by the period of at least first 1 hr

hypotension. Tissue and albumin canpete for binding the body's

bilirubin pool. It has been reported that the binding of bilirubin

to mitochondria is not determined by the free bilirubin level, but

by the concentration of the pH dependent subfraction, the free

bilirubin acid salt.40 Since the uptake of bilirubin by

mitochondria increases at lower pH and since acidosis is profound

in the cell and the extracellular fluid in hemorrhagic shock, the

cytotoxicity of bilirubin will 1ncrease during hemorrhagic shock.

In conclusion , the activity of H+-A-rPase decreases significantly

by hemorrhagic shock in jaundiced rats without remarkable changes

1n either the oxidative activity or the membrane potential of

liver mitochondria. This decrease of activity may be explained by

the possibility that the bindin,g F1 to Fo is compromised. It is

suggested that the F0 F1-ATPase complex plays key role in energy

restoration in recovery from shock.
